MURRY CHRIZMUS :)

Where is the snow?! It's Christmas man! It is however, a beautiful sunny day, so who's complainin'? This day started off a litttttle rocky, but after a few laughs with my crazy family over present unwrapping, a video compilation of my beloved Mimers who passed away a few months ago (RIP Bave), and a delicious french toast breakfast, I'd say its pretty damn good! I think I got every single thing on my Christmas list...Thanks for lookin' out Santy ;) Can't wait to post some of my fav gifts! Hint: a magical Harry Potter mug mighhtttt be in the works..I don't know hehe

Sadly my New Years plans have yet to show themselves. Howeverrrrr, if I were to plan the perfect New Years Eve celebration outfit....THIS WOULD BE IT.  I know in a previous post, I discussed starting the new year off wearing exactly what I wanted and not being afraid of what other people thought. With that being said,  never in my life have a worn a neon colored dress!... Neon Dress: added to the list of things to wear in 2012. In my ideal look below, I love the dress's pop of color, with the caramel colored heels and elegant jewelry. If only money grew on trees (even then, I'd still be broke as a joke because its winter... :( sad day) Time to look up cheaper alternatives to my dream outfit, on Forever 21 or ASOS sale selection. Oh Forevs and ASOS sale, you never let me down. Good day.

Diversity: I believe..it is an old, old wooden ship..used in the Civil War era..mhm

What would look good with my yesterdays outfit?...A monument that was left over from the civil war with veterans names engraved on it?...SURE. why not. Thanks old man pulling out of your driveway, for sharing that interesting bit of information, but hey, I realllly just need it for the shot!.. which makes me think..I like how fashion bloggers need the perfect backdrop to their photos. We stood outside of my house trying to get some nice pics of my outfit, but rural Illinois, you just don't do my pictures justice. Looking on the brightside, we at least have a civil war monument to spice things up! Woooo..not a very interesting post but it will have to do for now, Harry Potter 2 just can not wait, I'm sorry... I love HP.

Collar Holler

So this post was originally going to be about collars because I'm in love when them right now, but since I just got my new camera on Saturday, I couldn't resist myself and took quite a bit more photos of myself doing random faces (almost spelled faces like "phases"..wow) than expected! But I'm definitely feelin' my color choices in today's little get up. I like to mix different neutrals likes white, black and tan with a pop of color. Unfortunately I did not wear that lipstick all day long, only to spice up the pictures for my fake collar photo shoot ;) Back to collars on the other hand, I've seen way too many collared dresses on the runway lately and I've been wanting to do a step by step DIY collar tutorial. I saw some collars on ASOS.com that were detachable like a necklace almost and I want one so bad. But I thought, why spend 40 dollars on one, when I can make it myself! he he he. I always feel so smart when I make something that looks cute and costed almost nothing.

Necklace Italia

What a gloomy Saturday it is! I have spent this whole day with my mom, searching the mall for good Christmas deals. I found this really cute winter coat from Macy's. The brand is called Green Envy. I've never heard of it before but the coat is simply adorable with a giant cloak like hood that flops over the top of your forehead, I love it! Apart from browsing the mall, we also went on a nice lunch date to Fiesta Ranchera :) It's been nice not worrying about school and just relaxing at home with my family. Why do all good things have to come to and end, why?!
